This Data Processing and Sharing Agreement ("DPSA") forms part of the agreement between Glow Up Hub, operated by K&L Collective Pty Ltd (ACN 699 071 746) ("Glow Up Hub", "we", "us"), and the Customer ("you", "salon owner") who subscribes to and uses the Glow Up Hub platform ("Platform").
This DPSA should be read together with our Terms and Conditions and Privacy Policy. By accepting our Terms and Conditions, you also accept the terms of this DPSA.
About This Document
Glow Up Hub operates in two distinct roles in relation to data on the Platform. As a data processor, we store and process the content you upload on your behalf. As a data controller in our own right, we create and manage platform-wide content such as national laws, industry standards, and compliance updates that are available to all salon accounts. This document explains both roles clearly so you understand exactly how your data is handled.
1. Definitions
"Customer Content" means all documents, policies, procedures, staff information, and other materials uploaded to the Platform by the Customer or their Staff Users.
"Platform Content" means content created and managed by Glow Up Hub that is made available across all Customer accounts, including national laws, industry regulations, compliance updates, and general beauty industry guidance.
"Personal Data" means any information that identifies or could reasonably identify an individual, as defined under the Australian Privacy Act 1988 (Cth).
"Staff Users" means individuals authorised by the Customer to access the Platform on behalf of the Customer's business.
"Sub-processor" means any third party engaged by Glow Up Hub to process data in connection with the Platform.
"Authorised Access" means access by Glow Up Hub or its development team to a Customer's account, granted only with the Customer's prior approval via the Platform's access request process.
2. Roles and Responsibilities
2.1 Customer as Data Controller for Customer Content
In relation to Customer Content, you are the data controller. This means you are responsible for:
- determining what content is uploaded to the Platform and ensuring it is lawful to upload;
- ensuring that any personal data contained in Customer Content (such as staff names and contact details) is collected and held in compliance with the Australian Privacy Act 1988 (Cth);
- obtaining any necessary consents from Staff Users for their personal information to be stored on the Platform; and
- ensuring that Customer Content does not include your clients' personal information, health records, or other sensitive data not necessary for staff training and knowledge management purposes.
2.2 Glow Up Hub as Data Processor for Customer Content
In relation to Customer Content, Glow Up Hub acts as your data processor. This means we:
- store and process Customer Content solely for the purpose of providing the Platform services to you;
- do not use Customer Content for any purpose beyond delivering the Platform to you;
- do not share Customer Content with any other Customer or use it to train any other Customer's AI Staff Assistant;
- do not use Customer Content to train or improve our general platform systems; and
- process Customer Content only in accordance with your instructions and this DPSA.
2.3 Glow Up Hub as Data Controller for Platform Content
In relation to Platform Content, Glow Up Hub acts as the data controller. This means we are solely responsible for:
- the accuracy, currency, and lawfulness of Platform Content;
- decisions about what Platform Content is made available on the Platform;
- updating Platform Content when laws, regulations, or industry standards change; and
- notifying Customers when material Platform Content changes are made that may affect their business operations.
3. What Data We Process
As your data processor, Glow Up Hub processes the following categories of data on your behalf:
- business name, ABN, and business contact details provided at account setup;
- Staff User names and email addresses added to your account;
- documents, SOPs, policies, and procedures uploaded by you or your Staff Users; and
- usage logs and interaction data generated by your account and Staff Users within the Platform.
We do not require and strongly advise against the inclusion of the following in Customer Content:
- your clients' personal information including names, contact details, or health records;
- payment card or financial account details; or
- government-issued identification numbers.
If you inadvertently upload content containing your clients' personal information, please contact us immediately at hello@glowuphub.com.au so we can assist you in removing it.
4. Isolated Data Architecture
Each Customer's account operates within a fully isolated data environment. This means:
- your Customer Content is accessible only to you and your authorised Staff Users;
- your AI Staff Assistant is trained exclusively on your Customer Content and applicable Platform Content;
- no other Customer can access, view, or benefit from your Customer Content; and
- Glow Up Hub personnel cannot access your account without your explicit prior approval through the Platform's Authorised Access process.
5. Authorised Access by Glow Up Hub
5.1 Access Request Process
Glow Up Hub and its development and support team may only access your account after submitting a formal access request through the Platform. You will receive a notification of the request and must approve it before any access is granted. We will not access your account without your prior approval except in the circumstances described in clause 5.2.
5.2 Emergency Access
In exceptional circumstances, including a critical security incident, data breach, or where required by law, Glow Up Hub may access account data without prior approval. In these circumstances we will notify you of the access as soon as practicable and provide a written explanation of the reason for access.
5.3 Access Audit Log
A complete and timestamped record of every instance of Glow Up Hub or development team access to your account is maintained and visible to you within your account settings at all times. This log cannot be modified or deleted by Glow Up Hub.
6. Sub-processors
Glow Up Hub engages the following sub-processors in connection with the Platform. By accepting this DPSA, you authorise the use of these sub-processors:
Stackup Solutions (Hosting, Infrastructure and Development)
Stackup Solutions is our hosting, infrastructure, and development partner. Customer Content is stored on servers located in Paris, France. We use the hosting provider's native DNS services and do not use Cloudflare or any other third-party DNS provider. Stackup Solutions may access platform infrastructure for maintenance, debugging, and development purposes. Any access to individual Customer accounts requires Authorised Access approval as described in clause 5.
Anthropic and OpenAI
As set out in our AI Disclosure Statement, Anthropic (Claude API) and OpenAI (Embeddings API) process Customer Content as part of delivering the AI Staff Assistant. Neither provider uses this data to train their general models under our current API terms.
We will notify you of any material changes to our sub-processors with at least 30 days notice via email before the change takes effect.
7. Platform Content and Notifications
7.1 Platform Content Availability
